------- Additional comments from nick...@openoffice.org Tue Dec 14 07:09:41 +0000 2010 ------- Fixed exponent multiples have already been worked out elsewhere: specifically in the Java specification for the DecimalFormat Class (see http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html) And they use the Microsoft specified format scientific formatting code where the number of #'s implies the exponent multiple. We reverse engineered stuff that already exists. I suspect it is consistent with how Microsoft does it's Excel formatting. What this means is that a small chunk of Java code implementing a DecimalFormat object will do the formatting work for us. Useful if we can mix or translate Java to the C++ OO source format. I would recommend superseding much of what we have discussed with this Java specification, or equivalent.
